Like I said, Libby/Sabrina was mostly wishful thinking on my part. And I adore Harvey and shipped him and Sabrina just as much, and even though I stopped watching because it got so awful I was happy to hear that they got together in the end.
I've been experimenting with some different posting formats lately and I think I like this one a lot more than everything being centered.
I love Spike, really I do. But I kind of lost a lot of love for him after the whole attempted rape thing. I think the UST between Buffy and Faith was confirmed by Joss himself, although I wouldn't quote me on that, it's all here-say. Apparently that kiss on the forehead was supposed to be on the lips but meddling executives and all that.
That episode of Charmed is Witchness Protection from season 7. Charisma was awesome, her character was definitely one of my favourite demons of the whole series and I'm sad she only got a few episodes before she got killed off. She's almost like Cordelia was on Buffy - only less mean if you could believe it - which I found funny considering she's a demon and all. But so peppy! And valley girl. ♥
It did get pretty bad, but I watched anyway lol. I still have no idea how they carried on as long as they did after she started college. I mean, I love quite a few things from when she did of course. I love the characters they brought in for the most part, but it just wasn't as good, and it didn't make a lot of sense either.
I think as long as you have enough to balance each side out it definitely works well :)
I guess I'm just a ridiculous Spike fangirl, because he made up for that completely when he got his soul back. Plus I think back then I had this weird sort of non-con/dub-con kink/fascination going on, so while it made me sick to my stomach I was also kind of... I have no idea, but obviously it didn't affect me badly enough.
NO. God I hate censors! Wtf. Poor Joss. I bet he got a lot of shit from them over the years.
Oh thanks so much! Maybe I'll be able to find it somewhere :) And haha, it's not that hard to be nicer than Cordie though, but that's still hilarious. Love it.
And while it's sad, I understand not being able to work around the pregnancy, you know?
It's the only Community icon I've made so far, I need more dammit.
Exactly. It was Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Some shows just need to know when to end it. I can think of so many shows that just should have ended several seasons earlier - Charmed is one of them.
I love me some symmetry. I only like asymmetry when it's a design principal.
Well, I wouldn't know. I've never seen season 7 and I'm never going to. This show is dead to me. They killed Tara, and she was my favourite character, and nobody even reacted. "Oh, she's dead? That sucks." I understand the dub-con/non-con kink thing, it's not really one of mine, but when done well...well.
I HATE CENSORSHIP. Everything offends someone somewhere, grow some balls and let the girls kiss on TV. All I can hear is Helen Lovejoy screaming about the children.
Yeah, I hear that. I always get a little ticked when an actresses pregnancy ruins an upcoming storyline, I mean, I know they have lives and all but why don't they just do what Will and Grace did? Debra Messing got pregnant and it was sort of an inside joke that she was always sitting down or hiding behind things and everyone called her fat.
OH AGREED. It's very frustrating when they just keep going and on the way they tear down everything you loved about the show in the beginning. Like taking away Sabrina's aunts? BIG MISTAKE. Of course, I think the show really started going down hill as soon as Hilda got her clock shop.
Yes. Yes, and yes.
See I was never very fond of Tara, no offense. But likely the problem was that I was a little bit in love with Willow and only in like eighth grade at the time. Plus I really liked my original cast, even though Dawn and Jonathan had their moments. I wasn't very welcoming of the new-comers honestly. And I ADORED evil!Willow and how it went into this Willow-Xander-Giles love affair. But I am sorry she died, because I can't imagine how much that sucked for you :/
Seriously...
Yeah but Debra Messing is a goddess, so she pulled that off like woah.
Honestly, I watched the show mostly for the aunts and Salem's background antics.
Nah, I know not everbody loves the same characters. I wasn't that attatched to her when she was first introduced but as the show progress I totally fell for her and she became my favourite. And I LOVED Jonathan. I never liked Dawn but then that's hardly an original opinion in Buffy fandom.
Tara's death broke my heart. Less so because I knew far in advance it was coming because I only got into the fandom like, last year and because it was so sudden. But also because none of the characters seemed to care. AT ALL.
Plus Will and Grace is the type of show where you'd expect that sort of thing to happen and would totally let it slide because of the genre.
Yes. Salem <3 I kind of always had a secret desire for him to become human again and start back into his world-dominating business, with opposable thumbs and all.
Truth be told, I also miss Drell. Oh, Penn and Teller, come back to me.
Yeah Jonathan was adorable. <3 I didn't fangirl Dawn or anything, but I did like her relationship with Spike, and I thought she was sweet. But maybe that's just because I liked Michelle Tratchenburg so much.
They didn't but... I think a lot of it had to do with how many people they'd seen die, and knowing the end was getting closer. None of them were near as close to her as Willow obviously, and idk... I think I would have had them same reaction if I'd been one of the other characters. Of course, that probably makes me a horrible person so that doesn't say much about their character.
I loved Jonathan right from the start (although I really could have gone without the Superstar episode) and was glad when he became a recurring character. I also loved Andrew so you gotta know how much it sucked when I heard that he ended up killing Jonathan. I LOVE YOU BOTH, WHY DID IT HAVE TO HAPPEN?
I too always kind of wanted Salem to succeed and take over the world. I have a feeling that world would be an awesome place to live in.
I totally get that they'd seen so many people die, but they didn't even grieve afterwards (or so I heard) and it just felt wrong to me and totally rude considering Tara had practically been the Team Mom - not to mention Buffy's shoulder to cry on, TWICE.
ANDREW. I always forget his name, so I never feel like I have the right to say he was a favorite, but he totally was. UGH ILOVEHIM. And yeah very sad :/ The end was such a mess of sad and happy.
Right?! I don't see what the problem would be! Salem is kind of awesome all the time.
Yeah... Maybe it was just more that they were overwhelmed and couldn't really process it. Where Willow had a total meltdown, the rest couldn't even face what they were feeling.
I love Andrew. If I would watch season 7 for anything it would be more Andrew. And more Faith. But even the both of them together will never make me watch it. I'm in complete denial and intend to stay that way, and if I'm never introduced to Kennedy it will be a joyous day.
I think the UST between Buffy and Faith was confirmed by Joss himself, although I wouldn't quote me on that, it's all here-say.
I don't know about Joss, but in the Bad Girls commentary the writer flat-out said "And here we've got the growing lesbian subtext between these two, which was always fun to play with" hee.

I don't have a Buffy/Faith icon. Shame on me.
